JCF North Devon – Parts We’ll Never Play – Saturday 15th July 2023

JC Fundraising will be putting on a concert with the theme ‘Parts We’ll Never Play’ to raise money for Everything Ellie.
“Everything Ellie was set up in 2015 in memory of Ellie Easton. Her wish was to have a beach hut at Saunton Sands beach where Ellie spent time with her family and dogs so often, having time away from her hospital treatments and create lasting memories. Since 2015 the North Devon community have been amazing and fundraising events started happening everywhere. The funds raised were more than our beach hut running costs, so the trustees decided to buy ‘Ellie’s Lodge’ at Stowford Village, which provides respite holidays for families who have children with life limiting/life threatening illnesses, terminally ill parents with dependent children and bereaved families. Everything Ellie is run purely by local volunteers who give up their free time to help these families create memories and have blue sky days together.”

It is a pleasure to be fundraising for such an amazing cause and we hope you can come along and support.
